docs: TrueNAS compatibility matrix and the two-stage release process
The matrix is regenerated daily by CI rather than typed once and forgotten — a
support table that quietly goes stale is a false promise to someone deciding
whether to trust this with their backups.

name: TrueNAS compatibility
# Find out that iX broke us BEFORE their release ships, not after a user's backup
# fails.
#
# This patch appends code to middlewared's internal modules. There is no stability
# contract: TrueNAS 26 rewrote the whole cloud_backup path from async to sync, and
# every block the nested module injects is an `async def` wrapping an `await`ed
# original. Nobody would have found out until a restore did not work.
#
# tools/compat.py records what the patch assumes and checks it against iX's actual
# source at every release line -- including master and the current BETA/RC, which is
# where a break shows up first. When an UNRELEASED line breaks, this opens a bug
# report so there is time to fix it before that version reaches anyone.
#
# Runs on both forges: Gitea (canonical) and GitHub (mirror). Only the "file an
# issue" call differs.

# ONE pass over the network. Every other step renders from this JSON -- calling
# compat.py three times would re-fetch every file from every release line three
# times, and could even disagree with itself if iX pushed mid-run.
#
# The exit code is CAPTURED, not allowed to abort the step: a nonzero exit means
# "a shipped release is broken", which is a result to report, not a reason to
# die before reporting it. (Actions runs `bash -e`, so `cmd > out` followed by
# `echo $?` never reaches the echo.) It becomes a job failure at the end, after
# the bug report has been filed.

# An earlier version did `echo "${{ steps.report.outputs.body }}"`, which
# splices the text into the shell script itself -- and the report is full of
# backticks, so bash ran `create-snapshot`, `def` and `async` as commands. It
# is also an injection vector: the report is built from iX's source, so
# anything that lands in middleware would execute on the runner.
#
# The rule that avoids the whole class: never interpolate ${{ }} into a `run:`
# body. Files for data, `env:` for scalars (the runner sets those, rather than
# pasting them into the script).
